“…The students are actually enrolled at both institutions and in addition to the credits that they receive at their own university, they get a certificate from the other university as well. Such a fully integrated course, in contrast to loosely integrated courses (such as, for example, the multi-site project course described in [8]), brings a lot of administrative and technical challenges, but also many advantages. Firstly, the above constellation follows trends observed in GSE [1]: While in previous decades the most common form of GSE was outsourcing, or remote execution of particular activity (such as implementation based on a detailed design, or system test), recent trends show involvement of all sites in the entire project lifecycle.…”

The most effective setting for training in Global Software Engineering is to provide a distributed environment for students. In such an environment, students will meet challenges in recognizing problems first-hand. Teaching in a distributed environment is, however, very demanding, challenging and unpredictable compared to teaching in a local environment. Based on nine years of experience, in this paper we present the most important issues that should be taken into consideration to increase the probability of success in teaching a Global Software Engineering course.

“…Embedded Real-Time Systems and Software Engineering are the major research themes at MDH and there are Master programs focused around them. MDH also had been the initiator of a Global Software Engineering European Master program (www.gseem.eu) together with University of L'Aquila and VU University-Amsterdam [5].…”

The ubiquity of software is making every industry increasingly dependent on it for achieving their core products' functionality. The complexity in a telecommunication network requires not only thorough understanding of telecommunication per se, but software becomes equally interesting. This is the case with many industries, which rely more and more on software as their key enabler. Industry definitely needs a large number of software engineers with potential to be productive from day one. They are feeling impatient at the academic community for not being pragmatic. At the same time Academic community faces many challenges, which often make them thread a traditional path thus ignoring the industrial needs. We present some of these challenges from both the industrial and academic perspectives. We also present how we established a Master level advanced course on software verification and validation through mutual support and collaboration which became highly successful.

“…The review reports information about study environments, tools, and lessons learned. The authors present a section about GSE in the classroom citing some papers [2] [4][5][6][7]. Our work aims to extend the knowledge on teaching GSE by mapping courses carried out over the years, therefore complementing the systematic review presented in [8].…”

Teaching Global Software Engineering is challenging since it is not trivial to simulate distance and the changes that distance brings into the traditional software development life cycle. Despite the challenge, the need to teach undergrad and graduate students the skills to work in such environment is well-known in academia. The goal of this paper is two-folded. First, we identify what has been thought, by whom and to whom by conducting a literature review. This review aims to consolidate the body of knowledge on the topic in order to help professors and professionals interested in teaching the subject. For instance, we found that 19 courses have been reported involving 25 countries in total since 1997. Most of the courses involves graduate students as the main audience, and mainly discuss challenges in distributed development. Our second goal is to propose the creation of a collaborative repository to store and to report teaching experiences on the topic helping the development and strengthening of the Teaching Network community.
